In today's kitchens, different cooking techniques honor the Sabbath prohibition against lighting a fire to cook. Skopitz uses the modern electric Crock-Pot, which is started before Sabbath and turned off via a timer. Some people cook cholent overnight in the oven, while others set their pots on stovetop burners covered by a blech, a large metal sheet that moderates the heat so the stew won't burn.(Hat tip: Yeshiva World)
